2006 - May
As the old line went, if Stan Bowles could have passed a bookies the way he passed a football, he'd have been better than Pele...

A little bit before my time, true, but I watched the the tapes from when I was young - my Dad's a football journalist, too - (a better one than me!), and I was brought up watching players like Stan. Close control, bottle, vision, tenacity, flair and sheer, undiluted talent. He had the lot. Don't even think about what he'd be worth if he was playing nowadays. Same goes for someone like Billy Bonds - a right back who can play right midfield, centre half and scores goals.

Try putting a price on him in the lunacy of the Abramovich era...
